Couldn't even stand his ground against the yandere
"Did I run away too quickly?"

Gloriana: HIS HEART IS MINE TO TAKE! I SHALL BE THE ONE TO EAT IT!!!!
"Damn!" The mech designer cursed. "I can't enter the Friday Coalition! Ves is getting further and further away from me! What if some floozy from the Coalition sidles up to him and steals his heart? I can't allow that to happen!"

Man, these guys are kinda insane too. Well, considering they have ties to true mechers... it's not surprising...
"Apparently, no. According to the intelligence that we've obtained, Mr. Larkinson is departing for Leemar."

"How soon can I meet with him in person again? I ache for his touch!"

Ves the Frog Prince
"I see." Gloriana remarked. "Ves is a frog who jumps out of the pan as soon as the water heats up too rapidly. I'll have to heat him up gradually so that he won't escape until he's completely cooked! Yum!"

Ves in the future:
"Miss Wodin, please, if you don't wish to make Mr. Larkinson anxious, I highly recommend you to restrain some of your enthusiasm. For all of Mr. Larkinson's courage in battle and in mech design, he is woefully insecure when it comes to relationships. You will have to win him over gradually in the same manner as boiling a frog alive."

"I must have Ves." She declared with utmost conviction. "I will not allow him to slip away from my fingers. Not when we're so perfect together!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
"Cold feet? But he's perfect for me!" The Journeyman slammed her fist against the table! "We fit so well together! He called me beautiful! I could see the desire in his eyes when he stared at me! How could he run off all of a sudden?!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Won't be surprised if she'll show up at his personal corvette
"I need to get out of here!" He panicked. "The sooner I'm rid of Gloriana, the better!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
"I'm glad you think so well of me, but can you wait for a minute? I need to visit the bathroom for a moment. Can I have some time alone?"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Okay, Ves was getting increasingly more disturbed by Gloriana. She was a complete nutjob! The longer he stayed in her presence, the more he feared for his sanity!
Sci-fi · Exlor
Just ghost him, brother! I can't take any more of honest, self-aware Ves!
"I am flattered by your praise, but to be honest I don't identify with your description. I'm not a good person. I've got blood on my hands. I'm a liar, swindler and a cheat! I'm selfish and a coward! I'm one of the most deplorable mech designers in the galaxy!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Ves, the tiger's prey
"I don't think so." Gloriana stubbornly shook her head. "I think there's hardly any mech designer who's more compatible to me than you, Ves. The moment Callisto called me up was the moment I knew that I would no longer be alone. Now that I've met you in the flesh, I'm pleasantly surprised. You're charming, handsome, honorable, daring and brilliant! Not only that, but both our pets and our design philosophies go well with each other!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Ah yes two control freaks getting in a relationship...
"Ves, Ves, Ves. While it's true that I'm a Hexer, I think it is you who are misunderstanding something. Just because I agree that women are the superior doesn't mean that men should be treated like dirt! Goodness, no! Like boys, men need our protection! Don't worry, Ves. Once I'm in your life, I will make sure to protect you like any proper woman ought to do! That is what being a Hexer truly means!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Bro's already lost. He's now a wimpy simp
Ves tried to lean away but Gloriana firmly kept hold. Although Ves could have used a bit more force to separate himself from the woman, he really didn't want to offend a Hexer!
Sci-fi · Exlor
let's see how the Devil Tongue weasels his way out of this one. Alive.
She ignored his request! "Your design philosophy is perfect! Although I had to adjust some of my beliefs, I'm fully taken in by your ambition to elevate mechs into gods! In fact, I believe that the mech pilots who use your mechs will be raised into gods as well! Isn't that what symbiosis implies? With my assistance, your design philosophy stands a much greater chance of being realized! The mechs we design together will be so perfect that they will eventually become indistinguishable from real gods!"
Sci-fi · Exlor
Ves catfished himself
Callisto Professional Relations tried to match him with another mech designer by taking his record into account!

"I don't bite." Gloriana said with a smile after glaring so hard at Ves that it felt like she was biting his neck and drinking his blood.
"Ves! Are you so cowardly that you can't even face a girl? What are you afraid of? Tell me. I don't bite."
